Nomura: "Need to discuss with MS but haven't started conversation yet" on KH collection
- Thread starter Liliana
- Start date
I'm really surprised I expected PC ports(and eventual Xbox ones) of the collections when Disney dumped all of their games AT ONCE on Steam almost 2 years back. Back then people were saying Disney not allowing games to be digital releases was blocking it. Guess it's just out of touch suits like with Yakuza(until now) and Persona.
Like I said before if it wasn't announced at Microsoft's conference at E3 after the Frozen trailer then it s not happening.
Especially with Sony saying get the collection "only on PS4" the next day.
Square announces shit well in advance so if a collection was coming to Xbox we would have known by now.
Best case scenario would be it comes out after KH3 on Xbox but then who would care at that point?

Proof that Microsoft "paid" for DMC5 "premiere rights" (did you just make up premiere rights...lol)?
Actually, your entire post sounds like conjucture, and given how you never responded to my earlier reply to you on the first page, I'm not even sure I should bite again.
Marketing deals I always assume was a business deal. It's common. Paid or not, w/e. Premiere games at e3 is a thing. It involves business discussions. Anyways, I didn't see your reply or I would've replied to it. Here I'll go do that now
I'm a "random Sony fan" b/c I think they're moneyhatting Square? FFX, XII, VII & IX only being on PS4 + KH1.5,2.5,2.8 doesn't seem to signify that Sony & Square clearly have business dealings? If looking at the evidence in front of me makes me a Sony fan then ok lmao
as convoluted as the series is, I'm baffled why the collection just wasn't made without some special consideration of they are bothering to bring the game over to Xbox in the first place. I say this as a dude who has zero interest in the series and no Xbox.
Your entire post was wrong anyways, a total of 1 Sony exclusive was announced for Xbox and Sony had nothing to do with that game so I don't know where this Sony is keeping to lose exclusives coming from.
Again, sounds like conjecture and tinted shades. I don't believe that any company pays money to have a multiplatform game be premiered at their conference.
All this is irrelevant; Nomura himself stated what was said in the OP.
Remove "paid" from it then. It was a business discussion. Just like Sony getting Capcom to premiere REmake 2 & put a PS1 in the trailer. You're hanging up on a word instead of what we're talking about
Because Square is gonna Square. I am hoping XV sales convinced them
Why did you cut out the second half of the quote? He's implying they already own an Xbox One.
From the Giantbomb interview with Phil Spencer last night, it's not even needing to put in money but for them to get out and connect with the studios to show them that the games can be successful on Xbox One. That's why Monster Hunter World made it to Xbox, the Xbox team was talking to Capcom and not just hoping the game would come.
This. All this talk about "why Microsoft hasn't X" is just lulzworthy.
Either release your game elsewhere or quit yapping, Square.
But ps3 already very very cheap and he can even get a used ps3 just to know the franchise. Its just like saying 'already waste my money get a Xbox One and don't want anythink' case.

This makes little sense to me. Square just does not want to go through the effort to port them.
Has to be money or else why even bother releasing KH3 on xbox? And why the hell would MS pay for a port? (assuming this isn't the norm because i have no idea.)
Yoko Taro himself had hinted in that one German interview during the initial press tour that it wasn't exclusive to PS4 and so an Xbox release was not out of the question, which puts him leagues above any of the chucklefucks over at Square Enix, in my opinion.
You're not even making sense anymore. The fact is that Nomura stated what he did. As I said to you before, why would a listen to a well-known Sony fan over Nomura himself?
If the entire KH series becomes available on XBox, Bloodborne remains literally the only reason I'd want a PS4.
Almost all Disney games are on steam since 2 years. I'm sure KH will come.
b/c like *everyone* else is saying, it's weird that he would say it needs to be a discussion, when they are the deciding factor of it happening. but by all means call me a fanboy b/c i questioned whether sony moneyhatted something. that surely sounds like fanboy rhetoric
Everyone else? The majority of people are clamoring how stupid this is on SEs part. Also, I never said the word fanboy yet you seem to be having a mental breakdown. I wonder why?
I am sure a collection will be announced soon..Phil is super happy KH3 is finally coming to Xbox under his leadership..
It will only make sense to bring the other games to the Xbox audience as well.

I never refuted that it wasn't stupid by square. I gave a reason why they wouldn't be doing it and said agreed that it was weird he would say it needs to be a conferversation. You didn't have to say the word fanboy. It was what you clearly meant. It's easy to read context. And now I'm having a mental breakdown. You have an interesting way of reading things.
They did? As far as we know Capcom was targeting the west for this title, that's why they needed it on everything, MH also have MP which Xbox people like, furthermore we don't know how much it sold on Xbox.
I gotta say it's pretty shitty of Square to put KH3 on Xbox One but not the collections. Just throw people into one of the most convoluted stories in gaming with no context.
Personally I think Square could make some nice money porting 1.5+2.5 to Xbox One, PC and Switch. I know I'd double dip for Switch portability.

Looks like nomura is waiting for valve and Nintendo too l0l
This. Well, sort of.
I think Square is waiting to be approached so they get paid to put the game on the console, as opposed to making the game themselves. Either Xbox owners complain to Xbox to get them, or they make it known on Social Media they want this game on XB1.
Phil Spencer talked about it on the Giantbomb stream last night. He knew Sony had the marketing rights but wanted to make sure Capcom had a reason to bring it to Xbox. It apparently did well according to him.
Well, it's really up to the platform holder to encourage devs to release on their platform. Sounds like Square is pretty indifferent about it.
There are costs involved in porting, even between xbox and ps4, but more than that is the opportunity cost. If they have other projects that they believe will be more profitable than an xbox port, they will do those instead.

I don't think anger has anything to do with it. They've released Xbox One games and they have some sort of an idea how well their stuff can/will do, so at a certain point they just have to hedge their bets.
When did Phil say this? That's actually not a bad idea given how popular Game Pass blew up to be in such a short amount of time.
Yeah, MonHun did surprisingly well on Xbox. I like how he answers these questions, though. Seems to be doing a job in all these big outlet interviews.
